A shot at drawing Rhistel's great⁸ grandpa, Ulathiri. King of the Frostfell and Father of the Myastanni Dragonborn ❄️🌨
An NPC wonderfully performed by our DM, @fitzlemur
He tested Rhistel's resolve and pride as a dragonborn in this epic fight... before swallowing his grandson whole and making him rethink his life. Plot armor was the only reason he survived

:3 my wintry boy Kuj’ande, a character for mine and my friends little lore stuff. His design was based off of a leopard seal
He’s still a young hunter, his proudest kill was one that he made on planet Earth — a polar bear, that as you can see, he displays proudly. He carved a depiction of it out of the creatures bone, turned its hide into a cape and fresh new boots for him to stay warm. He left the pads of the creatures feet attached to the shoes, learning that they were great for walking on ice and snow without slipping. The scar on his torso is one that he acquired from the remarkable bear.

Future mini-series and one-shot plans ✨️
Tumblr media
I've got a few ideas for one-shots and fics to tide yall over until the smut hits in "Twist of Fate". 👀
I've already got a small, spin off mini-series of ToF called "Strings of Fate" (name pending), a whole bunch of hybrid one-shot series, a Fated/Soulmate one-shot series, a Tropes mini-series, a cam girl one-shot series, an android (based on Detroit become human) one-shot series, a fairy tale one-shot series, possibly a professors one-shot series, possibly a super heroes one-shot series, some possible OT2 (threesomes) and OT3 (foursomes) with not a single idea in mind, and some one-shots regarding the boys' myth 5 star cards!
I'll be explaining them below the cut! 🩷
So yall can let me know which you would like to see first, I'll tell you what I've got so far with each of them! Since I'm, also, completely unsure which I want to work on or if I want to change the idea entirely. Maybe yall will have some thoughts on how I can work the ideas a bit better as well!
I can't say much on the spin-off since it's major spoilers for ToF and, so, I'll probably start it after I get up to 25 or 30 chapters in posting ToF.
Tumblr media
The hybrid ideas though...I have a lot. I got most of these (if not all of these ideas besides the hybrid ones) from my scrapped BTS fic ideas so if I decide to write BTS ones, you might see some overlapping.
Oh right, let me explain Hybrids for those who might not know. They're basically like nekos, think of those hot cat girls in anime. They're humans with animal parts or characteristics!
But anyway, the first section is "Prey Hybrids". I have Rafayel down as an axolotl, Xavier as a frosty Holland lop rabbit, Sylus as either a sika deer or a tufted deer (both are native to south asia and I have no idea which one to use), and Zayne as a Black Beauty sugar glider.
Next section is "deadly hybrids". I have Rafayel under Great White Shark (they have two penises so I could use this in the story), Xavier as a Grey Wolf (wolves can knot 👀), Sylus as a melanistic tiger, and Zayne is a leopard seal. Now, I'm not sure how I'll make Zayne into a leopard seal hybrid, I was going to use a snow leopard but...I have a "polar hybrid" section coming up soon and also I didn't want two big cats in one part.
Now, we're onto "domesticated hybrids" so think of your cats, dogs, any animal that humans have thought "hey, that'd be a good pet" fits here. Rafayel is a calico koi fish (still undecided here), Xavier is a Corgi (I thought golden retriever but I didn't want to say the obvious), Sylus is a black smoke Maine Coon, and Zayne as an Agouti Husky.
"Uncanny Hybrids" is our next category and for uncanny, I wanted to do hybrids that not a lot of people write for. Like you usually see cats, dogs, octopi, sharks, squid, and stuff like that so I wanted to do the ones that not many people would do and that's difficult. Rafayel would be a chevrotain (which is a mouse deer with little fangs), Xavier would (fittingly) be a sloth, Sylus would be a vampire bat, and Zayne would be a Kangaroo (I might swap Sylus and Zayne but do note that Kangaroo have two penises as well; and I have no idea how to explain to my FBI agent just why my search history is filled with stuff like this but I must do my research for stories 😞).
Two more categories. We have "Polar hybrids" as mentioned earlier and "Mythological Hybrids".
For the polar ones, Rafayel is an arctic fox, Xavier is a penguin, Sylus is a snow owl, and Zayne is a polar bear!
As for the mythological, it's half unfinished. I only have Rafayel as a kitsune and Sylus as a cerberus/hellhound hybrid with Y/n being the daughter of Hades.
Tumblr media
The Fated/Soulmate series! I'm unsure what to call this exactly. I might have it under "Fated mini-series" but it's going to be four different one-shots with each of the guys under a different soulmate trope. So you can give me feedback about this as well or even comment something you'd want to see instead or even help add upon the idea itself!
Rafayel's soulmate trope would be the "colourblind until you touch" trope. Where everyone is colourblind until you meet your soulmate but for an added twist, the first touch from your soulmate leaves an imprint wherever they touched. So, for example, Rafayel grabs your arm as you try to leave and it leaves a pretty, water-coloured imprint on your wrist. I think that would be a fitting and cute combination for Rafayel.
Xavier's soulmate trope would either be "dreams of a past life together", so you both dream of your past life and have to find the person in your dreams, or "at a young age, you can make something and send it to your soulmate. This item will be key in finding your soulmate as an adult." So, let's say you send Xavier the star sword tassel and he sends you a crystal (imagine the protocore he tries to give the mc in his anecdotes). Then, as adults, you see Xavier walking to class with the charm on his backpack while your grandma, Josephine, turned the crystal into a necklace. Edit; this has been changed to a "tattoo mark" appearing when making contact with your soulmate annnnd the guideverse (so think espers and guides)
Zayne's is, by far, my favourite idea. It's "once you touch your soulmate, you get opposing evols". So similar to "opposites attract". You're childhood friends with Zayne and for some reason (spoilers), you wear gloves so you can touch anyone. Zayne also wears gloves in solidarity with you but, one day, he forgets his gloves and catches you when you slip. His hands touch your bare elbows and suddenly, he has an ice evol and yours is fire. For some extra angst, fire is traumatic for you and so is the thought of soulmates.
Sylus's is more of a funny idea than anything. A "tangible red string of fate" so similar to the evol linkage in game. He can drag you around with it and everything. It gets more visible and stronger the more you think about the other person, so at first its barely even noticeable and he can't move you with it. But soon, he can literally drag you out with him and you can play a funny game of tug-of-war with it. Edit; I really want to change this one so i might hold a voting for it as well
I also had the fleeting idea of grumpy x sunshine but that's more of a "trope" than a soulmate trope.
I also have another good fate idea for Rafayel, a stand-alone one. This soulmate au would be "your soulmate is from another world and you get dreams of their day-to-day life. You must decide if you'll cross over to their world by your 23rd birthday and, if you choose not to, you'll lose your connection to them." In this au, Rafayel would be the God of the Sea and you would be an average person. Rafayel would be more than willing to leave his life for his soulmate but as the last God of the Sea...You end up making the decision for him.
Tumblr media
The Tropes mini-series;
So this one is a four-shot with an accumulation of tropes. So each LADS boy will have a one-shot of a different trope. Like friends to lovers, rivals to lovers, etc.
I could've went the obvious route and chose Zayne or Xavier as childhood friends to lovers but I didn't want the easy way out to be honest.
The trope I chose for Rafayel is "amnesia". You've lost your memory and woke up in the hospital with a man seated next to you. His hand desperately gripping your own as if he were a balloon about to fly away. "Uh...hello?" You ask, your throat feeling dry as if you hadn't spoken in weeks. "Y/n!?" The man jerks awake with wide eyes. Tears flood his waterline and he gently cups your face. You can feel his hands trembling and you tilt your head to the side, confused, "Are you...my boyfriend?" "What-" Rafayel looked confused, but it only takes a few seconds before he nods, "Yes. I'm Rafayel, your boyfriend."
In actuality, you're his bodyguard and you got injured trying to protect him. He lies to you because he doesn't want you to put yourself in danger for him anymore.
Edit; this one has since been changed to "love at first sight" + reincarnation + slight enemies to lovers
Xavier's trope is a complete flip on what you would originally expect. I chose "rivals to lovers" for him, just because I had a small idea where he could be a lightseeker and you would be the other faction. (I forgot the names of the knights on Philo, they're from Xavier's lightseeker myth if you're confused) But you also get annoyed with Xavier because he keeps putting off his princely duties. Annnnd it would be funny to call him "Princess". I have since changed mind and Xavier's "Pragma(tic) Love" is out now!
Zayne's trope is also not "friends to lovers". Instead I thought "forbidden love". This one is a bit of a stretch and I can tweak it if it's unliked but this would be a fantasy au where Zayne is from the Kingdom of Linkon and he's a saint blessed by Astra (the God from his Forseer myth) and you are a princess from the Kingdom of Philo. You were blessed by the Goddess Lux (I made her up and her name means light) and you've come to Linkon's Kingdom to possibly marry their prince, Greyson (I didn't want to use a love interest for this role), and unite the kingdoms. Instead you, a princess from a kingdom who doesn't believe in Astra, and Zayne, a follower of Astra, fall in love. Also, Zayne's powers cannot affect you because of Lux's blessing, which gives you the ability to resonate (make other's powers stronger), heal, and create a ball of light so hot that it feels like fire itself. Edit; this one has been changed to "brother's best friend" <3
Now, Sylus is our friends to lovers! A modern au friends to lovers where your mother is a top operative in Onychinus, a crime syndicate led by Sylus's parents. You meet while young (but not too young) and have a seven year age gap. You've always had a crush on Sylus, since you were little, and Sylus possibly does but he avoids thinking about it because of your age difference. At 30, he feels like he's way too old for you, at 23 in this. Now, to not make it weird, your mother passes away and you're sent to your grandma, Josephine's to live a better life away from all the crime. You grow up there from highschool, all the way until college when disaster strikes. On your way home for springbreak with Caleb, your friend- who your grandmother took in, your home explodes. The blast kills both Caleb and your grandma. This was clearly an attack by a rival gang and Sylus steps in to take you back to Onychinus.
Edit; this one has been changed as well, I'm unsure of what just yet though, but there's a voting for what it could be! (Sept 2, 2024)
Tumblr media
I hope you guys aren't tired of this by now! But either way, I'll keep going since I'm not done yet. I just wanna put my ideas out there and figure out which I should be working on as I post my weekly chapters for "Twist of Fate".
The next category is the "camgirl" mini-series. This one was a must-have to add because I've read so many BTS camgirl one-shots and loved them so much. I doubt any of the four guys would ever want their love on camera for everyone to see but they might not mind as much if they're on screen with her...
So for Sylus, I already have a name. I came up with it at work- "Welcome to the Puppet Show".
The idea is as follows, "Sylus strings you up like a puppet with his evol during one of your weekly cam-sessions." That's it. That's all I got.
For the rest, Xavier's would be the usual. He's your childhood friend and he recently gifted you a necklace for your birthday. His friend, Jeremiah, tells him about this camgirl website and jokingly shows him a few videos. After this, Xavier has been watching your lives for a while now until he notices something peculiar in today's session. You're wearing the necklace he gave you. He instantly knows it's you because he got the necklace custom made and he confronts you about it.
Rafayel is a tattoo artist and he recently gave you a tattoo. It was a pretty unique one so he'd never forget what it looked like, especially where you had it done. A cute, little koi fish ying-yang under your breast. He sees the tattoo in one of your cam-sessions and I'm not sure how you would meet up after that, if I'm honest so let's move on to Zayne.
Zayne is your partner during your cam-shows. He's your close friend from school and once he learnt of your cam-shows, he casually offers to be a part of them for when your fans get tired of your solo lives. He's always only lent a hand, never actually fucking you. Neither on camera nor off. But on your final live, you ask him to fuck you. This is your final live because you're planning on confessing your feelings for him afterward.
Now, we're onto the most unsure one of all; the Android mini-series.
Tumblr media
The Android mini-series is, once again, solo one-shots compiled into a series. This series was heavily taken from an old bts mini-series I had. Like Rafayel's would've been Taehyung's (his model would've been the Vante KTH7-1230), Xavier's would've been Jimin's (his model would've been PJM7-1013), Zayne's would've been Namjoon's (his model being Holmes 2.0 KNJ7-0912), and Sylus's would've been Yoongi's (his model being OG Holmes MYG7-0309). So, I might change Zayne and Sylus's models because I might want to write this idea for bts in the future, but just let me know if you want to see it and I'll make some changes!
For Rafayel's, you were fully colourblind when you were younger but you were deadset on becoming an artist. Your grandma, Josephine, had always wanted the best for you so she worked many days of overtime at her job until she could finally afford a corrective surgery- but only for one eye. You've gotten the surgery, which was replacing your original eye with an android one so now you have one e/c (eye colour) eye and one magenta eye. Later on in life, you were finally in college for an art degree and your professor gifts you his old android. A Delaux model (the model is named after a famous artist who painted mermaids) with the ID number RF04-0306. The Delaux model of androids are used to help artists with colour correction and matching, give input on what would sell best or look more appealing to buyers, and even give an artist ideas for artworks or create compelling backstories that their artwork could be based upon. All Delaux androids have unnatural coloured hair since it's against their coding to have nature hair because it's normal and therefore boring for such an artsy android model. Rafayel is the only Delaux model with his hair colour.
Next up is Xavier. He's a Lux model android with the ID XV04-1016. Lux model androids are primarily used as an assist for the military and police force as replacements for the K-9 unit, so they're lithe and light on their feet. These models always have blonde or silver hair if they work for the police and black hair if they're affiliated with the military. If they have any different hair colour, then the Lux model is considered defective and is terminated. These models cannot be kept by the public because they're a higher caliber of android, unless they are protecting a rich client. For your story, you find him in an alleyway or maybe a garbage dump and he's half destroyed. You decide to bring him home to your mechanic shop (your home is above the shop) to repair him. Once your power him on, he remembers nothing so you decide to keep him around- almost as if he's a stray dog. Also, in this story, you have an android arm. For this one, I'm 100% sure if I want him to be a military android but it makes sense for him. It was either this or a sex worker android and I feel like that doesn't fit with him..
Zayne is a Holmes 2.0 model android with the ID number ZY04-0905. The one and only Holmes model in existence since the last one was shut down because it was ruled compromised (or deviant) after a various amount of tests. The Holmes model is a less animalistic version of the Lux model; These androids are more intuitive and less likely to instigate conflict. Black hair is their only choice of hair colour, anything else and they will be decommissioned. In this, you are a damn good detective. The best there ever was...until your accident. You miscalculated an explosion radius during your last big mission and it costed you big time. You ended up losing both an arm and a leg. Your boss (the chief of police) compensated you for your injuries. He provided you with an android arm and leg to replace what you had lost and a brand new Holmes 2.0 model android to be your little sidekick for the next few months, until you can get used your new limbs. This would be his first official test run before the EVER corporation created more of his model. But you hated it. You felt useless to your team and you felt less human with your new android add-ons. You pretty much took out your anger on your newly acquired android because they gave you an android to solve a problem that an android caused in the first place! Damn defective android almost killed you, all because it "didn't want to die". I love the premise of this but Holmes doesn't fit with Zayne's aesthetic. I can always swap him to a medical assistance android where Y/n has a heart condition and Zayne is her android that takes care of her but it's up to yall! If I change Zayne, I have to change Sylus's though because their models go hand in hand for the story.
And lastly, we have Sylus. He...can't remember his model name but he knows his ID number, SL04-0418. Though, every time he looks up his ID number, he gets no results. Nothing. It's almost as if his model never existed or...it was decommissioned. That would mean he's defective and he doesn't want to admit that. He doesn't want to be shut down. After searching, he soon learns that he might be the original Holmes model but...it's not like he can just ask anyone, they'd shut him down if he asked..right?
You have worked in the big, shiny and glaringly white EVER corporation building for years at this point, creating and customizing many androids that are constantly in every day use. You painstakingly detailed everything about these androids from their faces to even their personalities and the very first Holmes model was no exception. You grew very close to this android during the years of designing and creating him, you even gave him a name. Sylus. He was one of your favourites, out of all of your creations, and...he was decommissioned. You honestly never thought you'd see him again until you were brought in to shut him down and you couldn't bring yourself to do it. You had loosely based his looks on an old friend whom you had a one-sided crush on. From his hair to his eyebrows, his physique and even the scar on his chest. You were able to take full creative liberties with the very first Holmes model android because, well, it was the first in existence. But now, he's just called a failed prototype. You made him too...human. Too independent and strong willed. This wasn't the designated personality for a Holmes model android and this ultimately led to a cop becoming gravely injured on Sylus's first mission. The negligence caused by your own hand haunts your every day because you could've killed someone. It would've been your fault, after all. But now with that android, your android, standing right in front of you once more...You can't seem to let him go. You can't lose him, not for a second time. You're willing to throw your whole job away to protect him, sick and tired of androids being treated horribly just because they're becoming self aware and more human. So again, let me know if you like this idea and if you do, I hope you won't mind if I end up re-hashing it when I possibly make my bts android mini-series <3 because I genuinely can't think of anything that works with Sylus. Nothing else really makes sense but I'm also unsure of how the story would go with this one 🤔
Tumblr media
I think we're at the half-way point! This is where it goes downhill to be honest. The only good one here is the first one, I feel, but if I thought about it more, I'm sure I'd find better ideas for the other guys.
Rafayel's fairy tale story is quite obvious. It's "The Little Mermaid" but flipped. You would be Eric and Rafayel would be Ariel, however Eric would be the one wanting to be part of Ariel's world. You've seen him in the ocean multiple times from your beach house. Honestly, the first time you saw him, you thought he was drowning but then you saw the beautiful purple and blue tail fin that adorned his lower half. He was...a mermaid? Every day for a few weeks, you'd take some time out of your day just to watch him breach the surface and play around with the seagulls. He would sometimes sit atop driftwood and large boulders in the ocean. He was a sight to behold. And then, he began to take notice of you. Eventually, the two of you begin engaging in conversation- but not before he accuses you of wanting to fillet him like a fish. As the two of you grow close and he tells you stories about his home, Lemuria, you decide you want to be a part of his world. You find a traveling witch and she gives you an ultimatum. You can become a mermaid to live with Rafayel but you must give something up equal in return. Now, the tricky part is, I'm not sure what I want for Y/n to lose. I don't want it to be her voice, her eyesight, her emotions, so I'm thinking maybe she gains a heart condition so she can be with him but not for a long time. Though, this heart condition can be cured with an act of passion. An action that would tug on anyone's heart strings would be enough to snap the strings of Y/n's heart back into place. Also some mermaids are depicted with two penises so...Yeah!
Xavier's is yet another obvious one. I decided to go with "Sleeping Beauty" but I can always change it if I can find a better one. On the day the little prince was born, a warlock appeared and let out a cackle, "I shall curse the sole heir to Philo's throne. This kingdom has brought many sufferings to warlocks and witches alike and it shall be brought down by the prince himself!" The warlock, named Luminous (I came up with that on the spot but it's a parallel to Maleficent and Lumiere) also cursed the king and queen with infertility so they couldn't just have another child. And so, on Prince Xavier's 23rd birthday, Luminous reappeared and unsealed the curse upon the prince. Thorns erupted through the banquet hall, wrapping around the entire castle, and whomever was pricked by the thorns fell into a deep slumber. 50 years have passed since the kingdom of Philo fell into a deep slumber and you, a witch who was also childhood friends with the prince, decide to sneak into the castle and plunder it for any treasures it may hold. While searching, you prick your finger on a thorn and panic, thinking you will also succumb to the curse. However, you don't. This could be because you're a witch or because you're just the protagonist. Either way, this leads you to believe that you could wake Xavier up and this option would pave the way for more money in the future so it's your best opportunity for some quick wealth. As you head over to Xavier, pondering on how you could wake him up, you end up tripping over something on the floor and you land on top of him. Your lips crashing into his and you can taste your own blood. Congrats, you've awoken sleeping beauty! :D
Sylus's story...I'm torn between "Rapunzel" and "The Beauty and the Beast". He's got the Flynn Ryder aesthetic but also the Beast's at the same time so once I come up with a storyline, I'll probably make my decision.
Zayne's is also another hard decision. I could go for the obvious "Frozen" or perhaps Mulan. I'll explain my Frozen storyline though since that's all I've got. So Zayne is Elsa and you have the power of fire. (I haven't seen Frozen 2 but I think there's a girl who wields fire in it?) You don't know that you have this power and you were a princess who was just banished from your Kingdom, Philo, due to the false charge of trying to murder your step mother, the queen. You were banished from your warm kingdom to a desolate, snowy forest in the Kingdom of Linkon. And here, you stumble upon Zayne's ice castle that he created with his powers. Now, the story behind your false charges is, your step mother went from a mistress to a queen after your mother passed away and your step mother got rid of you because she wants her son, the king's non-bilogical, to be next in line for the throne instead of you. So, instead of fighting your way to go back home, you convince Zayne to allow you to stay in his castle until the snow storm outside subsides and you can leave. Soon, you learn of your fire powers and Zayne offers to aid you in learning how to use them. Also, Zayne's younger brother Greyson (He is Ana here) and his girlfriend Yvonne (She is Kristoff) are the rulers of Linkon because Zayne locked himself away in the castle in fear that his powers would hurt someone.
Tumblr media
Here's where the ideas get less and less detailed. This was another mini-series taken from my old bts ones and honestly, I might not even write these but I thought it would be nice to add them here just in case.
Zayne would be an English professor with you as his teaching assistant. Even though you're an assistant, you also do some classwork to bide your time when you're not busy and even turn it in to Zayne to have him 'grade' it. This week's essay for a romance essay and you decided to write a steamy little romance essay for fun and submit it to Zayne after class. A week passes by and you're worried he either saw it and didn't care or he's going to mention it when you leave expect it- which he does the latter. He's intrigued at how knowledgeable and intimate the scenes are, and questions if you've done something like this before. You respond that you're a virgin and Zayne asks, "Would you like to feel how your essay would play out?"
For Rafayel, I'd do the obvious choice of an Art Professor with you as his teaching assistant (you're always the teaching assistance because Professor x student feels a bit icky to me, just the power dynamic and everything. I'm not too into writing it). Anyway, he needs you to be a model for a painting but never tells you just what kind of model.
Sylus's could be a physical education professor, I'm not sure if that's even a type of professor? (I didn't go to college so I wouldn't know) but I'm on the fence about this one. I could base it loosely off of his boxing 5 star card.
Xavier would be the Theatre/Drama professor and he needs you to be his supporting actress for rehearsals. Maybe you both are participating in a big play with the students and you need to practice your lines?
Because these ones are specifically so short, I'm not going to add a break in-between. It feels unnecessary but the next idea is superheroes. Honestly since I love Spiderman so much, I might make them all spiderman but for now...here's the ideas.
Xavier would be Lumiere (comparable to Spiderman), Rafayel would be spiderman (because I don't want to write aquaman-), Zayne could be winter soldier, and Sylus might fit as Iron Man. So in these stories, you'd be Iron man's secretary (so think Pepper), spiderman's best friend, lumiere's biggest fan and probably a reporter, and I'm drawing a blank on winter soldier.
The superhero one is honestly my weakest link when it comes to these one-shots but I really want to give it a shot.
Then, the actual one-shots that wouldn't be in series's would be all of their 5 star myth cards but reimagined. So I wouldn't write them word for word, just loosely base them on it.
The only example I have is for the Sea God myth.
So in this story, you're still an orphan being raised by the emissaries as a sacrifice for the Sea God but you have grandma Josephine, who was a clergy woman at the church you were confined to. She would tell you all kinds of stories about Lemuria and the people who lived under the deep sea. Then, on your 19th birthday, she passes away and shortly after, you were thrown into the sea as a sacrifice for the Sea God. I set the age at 18/19 just because Rafayel's coming of age ceremony to become the Sea God is within the 5 star myth cards and usually your coming of age ceremony (at least in ro-fan manhwas) is around the age of 16 to 19.
Tumblr media
Annnnd that should be it! I really wanted to add my space/alien! Bts au since I really like it and will more than likely write it in the future, but this isn't a bts post so I don't want to write about them too much here but if you want to hear about it then I might make a separate post about it!
With that being said, I hope you enjoyed reading through my ideas for the future and have some that you're looking forward to! Other than that, my next post will be Chapters Six and Seven for "Twist of Fate" on late Friday or sometime Saturday! I don't have an exact time since I'll have to cross-post to both wattpad and AO3 but it'll be one of those two days. I'll possibly even post chapter eight as well, but I'm not too sure yet since I'm writing chapter twenty and I don't want to post too many chapters at once. I'll see y'all once more on friday/saturday! 🩷

tf2 but they are all furries (based on cosmetics/personality/mechanics!) scout is a hare, soldier is a raccoon, pyro is a firebug, demoman is a parrot, heavy is a polar bear, engineer is an armadillo, medic is a red fox, sniper is a crocodile, spy is a snow leopard!
sniper's cosmetic set inspired the whole thing.
BASED ON COSMETICS: scout, soldier, demoman
BASED ON PERSONALITY(ish): pyro, heavy, engineer, medic
BASED ON MECHANICS: spy
ask me in the comments about the guys if you'd like, or comment if you think a diff animal would be better (i will probably draw it)

Bit of a twist on the regular hybrid aus
A small percentage of people hybridise as their national/state animals because magic got reintroduced into the world a couple generations back
Soap is a Unicorn, Price, Gaz and Ghost are Lions and Roach is a Welsh dragon.
Graves and Alex are either bald eagles or long horns and Laswell is either a bald eagle, a calico cat or an Astrodon (a mother fucking dinosaur)
Farah is Phoenix and Hadir is a snow Leopard.
Alejandro and Rudy are Golden eagles and Valeria is a rattle snake.
Nick is a Eurasian brown bear
People didn’t think Soap would do well in the military because of how Unicorns are traditionally viewed, sometimes he still cops flack for it.
People hate losing mythic hybrids so Soap Roach and Farah are treated differently then regular hybrids.
Shepherd is jealous of the hybrids and Makarove wants magic extinguished from the world again. 
Maryland has a fucking DINOSAUR as one of its state animals wtf
Urzikstan and Las almas don’t actually exist so I Just went with what I thought fit (and what information I could google)
Sorry if this is too much/weird I got a bit carried away 😅
GREAT PREMIS LOVE THIS!!! This is a perfect idea with how to do hybrids.
Soap as a unicorn is based as FUCK!! Idk about Gaz, Ghost, and, Price all being lions but I don't hate it. I see Roach as Irish but a Welsh dragon is just as good.
Graves is a bald eagle, Alex is a long horn, and Laswell HAS to be the dinosaur I don't make the rules.
Farah as a phenix is perfect for a number of reasons and Hadir as a snow Lepard makes sense as well because of well...Russians.
Alejandro and Rudy as golden eagles is smart and Valeria as a rattle snake is good but also maybe a cobra/viper.
Nik a brown bear is great however here me out polar bear.
No your right people don't suspect for Soap to be as good as he is and that's perfect. and mythic hybrids being treated different is amazing because of course they would be.
Makarov and Shepard have perfect motivations to cause issues.
I did know about the Maryland's state bird lol it's so cool isn't it.
(No your fine it looks about right also it's fiction it's ok)
You are fine lol I love this kind of ask! I would love to hear more of your thoughts on this.

Can you write the DMC men with a zookeeper reader?
It’s a very tiring and ridiculously demanding job but since she loved the animals so much, she’s willing to sleep at the zoo’s office to watch over them when one of the animals need overnight assistance
She tells her multiple experiences working with different animals and the ones that are (surprisingly) the easiest for her to work with are tigers, jaguars, snow leopards, cougars because even though they are predatory animal, they can be very affectionate and will spend time bonding after lots of attempts from her being respectful towards their boundaries, positive reinforcements ( ex: not biting her broom equals free treats ), no direct eye contact, using a soft tone like how a mother would talk to an infant, etc while not anthropomorphizing the relationship
But the animals that she’s very wary to work with, or if given opportunity, she will avoid working with them at all costs are surprisingly mostly the non-meat eaters like zebras, cassowaries (especially in their breeding season) and her biggest fear, chimpanzees…She told them how the zebra gets most zookeepers to be ended up in the ER because of how unpredictable they are, how a cassowary one time kicked at her shin with their jurassic pedicure resulting in her being off duty for nearly half a year before she can somewhat limp to work again. Finally, she tells them to ask all zookeepers “ what are the list of animals they prefer to not work with ?” If a zookeeper do not have chimps amongst their answers, they’re most likely have not worked with one (fortunately)
She tells them the one time she nearly got her arm ripped off because she carelessly decided to put her arm into their feeding space to retrieve their eating bowl, which unbeknownst to her, a chimp is hiding out of her sight, ready to tear her arm off had she put it in. She was scolded by her manager for that one but she’s glad that some senses had been knocked into her
(This is based off of an actual story btw)
At last, of all the animals, the ones she downright hated working with the most are definitely the hairless apes with nothing but an Iphone and a sense of entitlement. One time, at an old zoo she used to work, a mom tried to put her kid over the railing to get him a better sight of ( out of all the animals ) a Polar bear which resulted in the kid falling into the pool, right around its feeding time. All zoo staffs including her had to euthanize the poor bear to save the kid…Till this day, she still mourns over the bear and the amount of anger would surge through her every time someone mentions that woman and she would silently cuss at her because her negligence could’ve killed her kid and the bear as well
Yes, sure!
Sparda boys + V x Zookeeper!Reader headcannons
¤ Dante ¤
-You are a very caring animal lover and Dante thinks that's adorable.
-Your stories about what you do at the zoo are some of the most entertaining he ever heard, and serve to calm him down after a nightmare or too much alcohol.
-Would actually like to meet these animals that you are so fond of taking care of--given that most are felines and Dante is pretty much a fat lazy cat, they'll get along just fine.
-Wants you to be careful when dealing with those nasty chimps with their damn iphones. Hearing you almost lost your arm to one of them doesn't help matters much.
-Will visit you and drop off supplies for you if you decide to spend the night at the zoo office.
-Understands thar you miss that poor euthanized bear, but doesn't share your sentiments. How can he, anyway? He never knew the thing.
■ Vergil ■
-Vergil is not fond of animals, will tolerate them, but would never have the patience to care for them.
-You have earned his respect for being able to do something he never will.
-Will portal into your office whenever you decide to stay the night with all your overnight essentials packed in a rugsack.
-Enjoys heading your stories. As someone with little to no experience in animal care, he appreciates this knowledge.
-Does not want you to continue dealing with those barbaric chimpanzees for fear of further injury, but if you must, then he has no choice but to allow you to.
-Pats you on the shoulder to calm you down when you get upset over the deceased polar bear. While he will never understand why humans are so bothered by these sorts of things, he will do his best to comfort you.
□ Nero □
-Nero loves to watch you take care of the animals. You're so gentle and loving around them, like they're nothing more than household pets.
-He enjoys listening to you yammer on excitedly about all your experiences at the zoo, filling his ears with random factoids he'll never use.
-Hates that you spend nights at the zoo because come on, that can't be comfortable. Wouldn't you rather be cuddling with him in your nice, warm, fluffy bed?
-Then again, you're such a sweet soul who's kind to everything and everyone--you probably wouldn't even notice the discomfort.
-Understands that you're upset about that poor bear and is a little moved by its story, but just a little.
● V ●
-Being an animal lover himself with several familiars, V understands your commitment to the zoo animals.
-Indeed, they are magnificent creatures. If he wasn't afraid of being ripped to shreds, he would have petted some of them.
-Enjoys watching you work, though he can't stay for long because if he does, Shadow will claw at the enclosure walls, trying to get in to play with the other felines.
-Misses you when you have to stay the night at the zoo, but he knows your animals are important to you, so he says goodnight and greets you with a kiss when you come back in the morning.
-Likes listening to your stories, especially the ones about those mischievous chimps.
-Sympathizes with your feelings regarding that polar bear. Had the mother not been so neglectful, it wouldn't have had to die.

Hiiiiiii I see your request is open so this is my request.
What happens if the Decepticon learns that the reader (gender as you like) has the superpower to turn into fluffy creatures (maybe furry cats lol).
Love from wolf anon 🐺
I just did all of them together, or at least most since I always feel like I forget someone. I took some freedoms with this but kept to the fluffy part mostly
•There’s quite a lot of confusion when there’s suddenly a wolf on the Nemesis
•Well the cons all think it’s a big dog, because they’re not really knowledgeable on things like earth animals
•Then you turn back into your human form and the ones who were there, aka Screamer, Knockout and Breakdown are looking at you like “What the scrap?”
•You’re explain that you’re a shapeshifter of sorts and Knockout is definitely a fan
•He loves cats, and you turning into a tiger or a snow leopard is great, because normal cats are a bit too small for him, or at least he thinks so
•Knockout is just convinced he would break something as tiny as a cat, so you’re a great replacement to cuddle with
•Megatron does not really care about what you can turn into, he’s more interested about why and how you’re able to do that
•Soundwave thinks your ability could be quite useful
•Like if you turn into a cat and infiltrate the autobot base or something like that, but he also thinks cats of all kinds are very cute
•Breakdown thinks it’s cool that you can turn into different creatures, but his favorite is definitely a bear, doesn’t really matter if it’s a black bear or a polar bear, he thinks they’re very cool
•Starscream thinks cats are elegant and different kinds of cats are like the only animals he thinks have any worth
•He just really dislikes animals, because he thinks they’re kind dirty and annoying
•If you let him, he would be glad to pet you, while you’re in in a panther form or something
•All in all, most of them think it’s cute and they enjoy your company in animal form as well, while Megatron is wondering how he could use this to his advantage

For some headcanons im doing, I need all of your input. Since I’m inspired by a lot of nature docs and wild animal attacks.
Would y’all agree that Bi-Han is an arctic wolf, Kuai is a mountain lion, and Tomas is a grizzly bear?
Or would Tomas be a polar bear?
Or would Kuai be a snow leopard?
I need some input before I start piecing these headcanons together. Im trying to base it off of the snowy tundra they live in

fluffy dragon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(versions with and without stripes)
I overthought this way more than it looks like, so details below the cut (drawing details and the random shit I made up about this type of dragon. Don’t be fooled, I made it up as I wrote it)
This cutie lives in the mountains and other cold places. It was vaguely based off polar bears, mountain goats, snow leopards and mountain lions, besides my usual wings of fire style dragons and stock knowledge about drawing stuff like fur.
This particular individual is a juvenile, coming up on their last molt into their adult coat. Since these dragons reach maturity around when the first heavy snow hits, their new coat will be entirely white. Come spring, when the snow begins to melt and shortly after the mating season, they will molt into a more mottled and darker pelt to raise chicks.
The chicks are born live, and raised usually by two or more individuals. While capable of sexual reproduction, this species tends to reproduce asexually, but raise the chicks in groups of two to seven adults. There are around three chicks per dragon ecery season (all in one litter), and dragons in a group usually give birth in staggered intervals across the season, so that there are only three to six newborn chicks at a time. Parenting varies across groups; some have specific dragons caring for specific ages of chicks (one or two care for newborns, others care for youngsters, more care for older juveniles), some simply rotate with each litter, but one oddly consistent fact is that the parent almost never cares for their biological chicks. A dragon will slow down somewhat during the gestation period (these dragons often move to work with the youngest chicks in larger parent groups so that they don’t strain themselves with teaching older chicks more difficult things like hunting) but after giving birth they bounce back very quickly, and most keep with the younger chicks through their growth, rather than caring for their own newborns, especially if the parent is inexperienced. If there are complications in a birth or other injury or a parent dies, the rest of their group will take over care of their chicks and them if they are still alive. These communities result in a shockingly high survival rate in both parents and offspring through the summer, though during the winter these groups split up and youngsters and adults alike die from natural causes. While they separate during the winter, there is little hostility between individuals, and they often simply ignore each other until spring, though groups during mating season have been seen to act friendly towards each other year round. During “mating season,” when groups of parents gather and arrange to raise chicks, yearlings from last season are often adopted into groups of more experienced individuals of at least six years and help parent the chicks while not yet bearing any of their own.

Hello! How are you today :))? I hope you're doing well. I was hoping to see what animals you'd think would make good quirks? We've seen Tsuyu and her frog quirk; Mirko as a rabbit; Gang Orca as a, well, orca: etc. I was wondering which animal would make good quirks in the same concept as these characters. That, and I really just like the idea of the user having like small quirks about them related to the animal, and y'know- ears and headpats hehe :DD Thank you! I
Can you make a quirk based on the Ferruginous Hawk
Can you make a quirk that based on a liger
How about a quirk of the stealthiest of all big cats the leopard
What about a quirk of a polar bear
So here's the thing with Animal Mutations is that you can pretty much take any animal and it is bound to work as long as you keep it reasonable to basic traits. However, with Animal Mutations, usually aren't so specific. Tsuyu is a frog and Miruko is a rabbit. If there is a hawk Quirks, it's just a hawk. It'd be part of a Quirk is if was an expansion of the animal, like Tsuyu being able to poison people like other frog species, if it was an aesthetic choice, like hawk mutation resembling the Ferruginous hawk, or if the animal is distinct enough to make it's own Quirk, like Gang Orca being a killer whale. And for this blog in particular, I can't really cover certain animals that are similar. Polar bears, leopards, and ligers are unique animals, but they wouldn't be that different from a grizzly bear, snow leopard/jaguar, lion, or tiger to be worth making their own Quirks without being redundant. Heck, I'm not even if sure animal hybrids like ligers could be Mutant Quirks in the first place.

Were there any terrible leaders within the kingdoms? I'm interested to learn about some of Chima's history, particularly with their royalty !! How much has changed from the past? Are there new laws, are there any relics from old times? I gotta knoww (I'm a lore freak lol!!)
Excited to hear more! :]
Thank you mutual for the ask!!
Chima's history (in TFLOC) can be divided into two parts: before failed Illumination (bFI) and after failed Illumination (aFI). In summary:
Chima during bFI years was once populated by these tribes: Sabertooth Tiger, Mammoth, Vulture, Polar Bear, Leopard, Tiger, Cave Lion, Grizzly Bear (referred to as just "Bear" for short), Fox, Skunk, and Peacock tribes.
Chima at that time was cruel and unforgiving, as its landscape froze buried under dense snow, with temperatures low enough to turn Chi into ice. Having to withstand the cold made the animals there suffer enough, but the— at the time— recently introduced Chi brought them a new confusing pain: sapience.
The Phoenixes had already left the land before they managed to see the animals evolve, and thus everyone who consumed Chi needed to take care of themselves helpless. This confusion caused a major shift in each species' behavior; the tribes during bFI were violent, causing an eternal wave of civil wars between them, and even infighting amongst tribe members.
Chi was so new, in fact, that the concept of "tribes" couldn't have been executed properly. It was only a few hundred years later when Chima's society became concrete, and when everything began to go south.
Also, bFI Chi is different from aFI Chi.
Unfortunately, most of the bFI events were not archived, as text was only written onto pelts, meaning that whatever did not permafrost rotted away. However, certain incidents during this time were so horrific it made its lasting way up until the end of bFI.
One of these incidents is the war named "Death of Night"; Sardor, the first and last leader of the Sabertooth Tiger Tribe, had gone insane after eating a lot of Chi, and he then sent his warriors to war against the majority of the tribes. Old texts say that the sabertooths had no direction and willingly attacked the Tiger and Leopard tribes, who were competing against them for food at that time, which unfortunately killed a lot of animals from both sides. It is also mentioned that Sardor later died out of the blue, though experts from the Eagle Tribe believe that it was from Chi overdose.
This massacre caused an instability inside each and every tribe's political structure. Afraid of repeating another incident like this, the Sabertooth Tiger Tribe decided to have no rulers, choosing to join the alliance of the Vulture, Mammoth and Polar Bear tribes; they formed the predecessor of the Ice Hunters, a few decades before the Phoenix Tribe's return.
Laws during that era were vague, based on principals similar to early mankind, but everything was so chaotic it was hard to actually enforce them properly.
TFLOC begins during 1001 aFI, after the Thousand Year of Peace had ended (0 aFI – 1000 aFI).
Stay tuned for more! :D

ok im gonna start with ones i like and molds i like that are returning
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
first of all these cats the small longhair (first one) is very cute i like the colors and the asymmetrical ear. and the second one is one of my favorite cat molds ever so im so happy to see it back and the third one is kind of not quit there but i really like the purple and the green and the white it reminds me of Seren sort of but the hues are just a little off. still good i want it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they returned deer which i think are very cute and didn't get enough pets originally and eye symbols !? AND FOXES ARE BACK !!! a couple of these new ones have symbols as a weird rarity thing i think but it doesnt actually mean anything. and i just think the woodpecker and snow leopard is cute and the baby skunk/squirrel (they used it interchangably) is so good colorwise
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
on molds ive never fucking seen before in my life: i admire their dedication to pulling very strange, late-game molds that only got used once or twice (especially from the petriplet sets, they returned the polar bear baby molds as well). i had to scour the website for that turtle mold ive NEVER seen it before
Tumblr media
they used the wolf body with the husky head to make a standing mold and its too shaggy for a husky but you know what. resourceful. even though there was already a standing mold made for this head ! im surprised they havent returned the last husky mold because it was only ever used 3 times (one as a g4 blind bag, so two times) but theyve used this one several times now
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
AND THE NEW MOLDS... YES THERE'S TWO NEW MOLDS!!! i'm mixed on them. theyre cute! the sloth feels like it's closer to that late g3 feel, and the capybara is a little... odd, but it's a hard face shape to work with in this style. i think my main thing is the eyes don't feel sculpted enough into the heads? there's a bump for the eye, but it's hard to explain. on original molds the eyes were often "sunken in"?
Tumblr media
big image so you can see it, but if you look you can see they have a sculpted "in-set" effect, to closer mimic the effect of glass eyes and stuff (they did do a couple of those in the original runs, too!), with the sort of curved cheek and ring around the eye that slopes inward. the newer molds are more sticker-like: they have a raised area for the eye to go, but lack the sculpted in-set effect which is making them look more off compared to the originals than they actually are. it's easiest to see that on the capybara but the sloth actually looks a little closer but still too flat (though it's hard to tell based on the -2 pixel image i have
and the other thing you may have noticed is the
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
REALLY strange color choices they keep doing? i like bright, colorful oversaturated 'ugly' color palettes but i am kind of confused what the thought process is behind some of these. especially the first usage of their capybara molds being so bright and random and the woodpecker's blue beak? and the kiwi is cute, but the orange is just Too orange and the blue and yello is just Too Much its all very very very saturated. in irl pics its a little better but still clearly really saturated paint that looks like A lot, like the shades are just a little off where they should be
also i cant find pictures but there's supposed to be two new toucans and a PEACOCK so win for me

One thing that I don't get about good shows like Naruto and atla is how they ignore the biology of a species and it's response to different geographical landscapes....
Tumblr media
In atla how can they ignore the fact that while aapa is a good vehicle and companion overall, he cannot possibly survive in the desert for more than an hour or so..(I believe)
Just look at him....
He is furry big ball and is native to the high peak mountains where there is likely cold and air bison have likely adapted to that climate and evolved.
In this world it would be like putting a snow leopard or a polar bear in the middle of the desert and we all know how that will turn out...
Tumblr media
Similarly in naruto the lack of importance they give to human biology and climates impact on it is outrageous...
Mainly because both of the above shows have great worldbuilding, plot and these mistakes bring down the overall image...
I am happy that naruto as a whole explored racial diversity and all but they did not take into factor the climatic consequences on human body and it's subsequent evolution.
Sunagakure and iwa are extremely hot places with desert and dry climate respectively.... therefore it is extremely plausible that people living in suna will likely develop dark/dusky complexion like we see generally today in middle east or desert areas to protect them from the Sun....
And perhaps the argument against this could be that their chakra can protect them but we seem to forget the fact that hidden villages have civilian population too...how will they cope???
No matter how much u cover up your body as they do in suna, the body will start to evolve to accommodate the climate... it's basic evolution.
Another thing is how they can put black people in kumo like how does this makes sense?
Black people have high count of melanin in their body to protect them from the Sun because they come from an equatorial region where sun always shines so how can they survive in a cloudy high mountains where there is little to no sunlight. Black people in Kumo don't make sense because they will likely be too weak to ever become warriors. if they were put somewhere like suna or iwa then it would have made sense....but...
People who have evolved based on their geography find it difficult to adapt to sudden change in climatic conditions. Even today if a black or a person of color suppose from Congo or india suddenly shifts to england or Sweden they pose a risk of developing bone or skin diseases because there they won't get the sunlight their body is accustomed to and it will take a long time for them to adapt.... likely generations and genetic diversity.
Even In our world we see that the white people who first migrated to America, their descendants have developed a unique color that is a bit tanned because of their geography. Comparing them to the white people living in Europe there is always a difference. (Keeping in mind this observation is from my personal experience.)
Even black Americans have generally have a dusky dark brown complexion that is unique and completly different from their african counterparts . (Again my personal observation)
(And pls keep in mind this observation is of people whose ancestors shifted/forcibly brought to America and they are their descendants not the ones who just migrated recently.)
so how.....does it make sense in the shows...
And I know all of this is hypothetical and likely will not make sense but I just wanted to rant so....
Correct me if I am wrong but the lack of respect to biology in these shows is very irritating mainly because the shows overall are very appealing.
Let me know what u think
PS konoha is the only place where we see some semblance but not too much of diversity in race and it makes sense there and makes it seem like kishimoto only put effort in konoha not other villages.

please ignore the last ask it got sent by accident and I don't know how to delete them What I wanted to ask was how many fae types do you have, and what are their distinctive traits? And in general, what types of creatures \ magic do you have in your world? There is witch music and fae music, but is the difference and what uses does each of the types have?
(You unfortunately can’t delete asks you send through askboxes, but I didn’t receive any other ask from you, so I think you accidentally deleted it.)
So, fae types. It really depends on the fic, and by what you mean by ‘types’. There are the different Courts, which are different depending on the fic. In Burning Iron, I use Seelie and Unseelie court system. In other fics, there are the four season, Summer, Fall/Autumn, Winter, Spring. And in Nocturne, I mixed it up with the Courts being Summer, Winter, Light and Dark.
The way you can tell apart these fae is by how the dress (colors, accessories, and fittings – e.g. a Summer Fae would want something light and breezy, a Winter Fae would prefer something a bit warmer).
There are also different… rankings… for want of a better word. Monarchs can be noticed by the fact that they’ll have the embodiment of the Court’s magic curling around. For example, Unseelie Monarchs have the Shadows, and Seelie Monarchs have Light. High-Ranking Fae and Low-Ranking Fae don’t really have any distinctive about them other than their strength.
There are a lot of creatures in our Fae Lore. Each Court has a dragon representing seasonal aspects of that court (so a Winter Dragon that looks like it’s made of ice, an Autumn Dragon that looks like it’s made from fall leaves, a Spring Dragon that looks like a hill of flowers when resting, and the Summer Dragon looks like it’s made from tree bark and moss) as seen in Flame's fic Shadows and Ice.
There is the Seelie and Unseelie Chimeras (the Unseelie Chimera made a brief appearance in Burning Iron chapter six, but it’s basically like a chimera, but with instead of a lion with two other heads, that being a dragon and a goat, the Unseelie Chimera is a Snow Leopard with a polar bear head and an ice dragon head).
There are some other creatures as well. Displacer Beasts, Enfields, Kelpies, Redcaps, etc. There are just a lot of fun creatures, even if they aren’t always included in every chapter of my fics!
As for the magic! Fae magic is pure fantasy stuff. It’s more powerful than a witch’s magic, but it’s pretty specialized. Most fae can cast glamor (illusions and charms) to some extent. But most fae magic has to do with the element their personality is most aligned to (fire, water, earth, air) with some person touches, here and there.
The witchcraft is actually based on real world witchcraft, as well as pagan and wiccan practices. I have done a lot of research to be as accurate as possible, as well as talked to plenty of real witches about it.
